Football poll

I like Gaelic football, at least they can still have a bit of biff. Its a bit rough, and no one knows what the hell is going on and the STILL HAVE A GOOD TIME

League is so sanitised now-adays, and all the rules make Big Hits so hard these days. Bah

Union, not too bad, if the aussies stood up for themselves, let the cheating dirty poms, frogs and yarpies get away with anything. Bah

AFL, Slap Slap - $1000000000 Fine??? Bah.

Soccer..Oh Gee! 90 Minutes for three points! Bah

Canadian Football? Never heard of it, but BAH!

American Football....Bah

Real athletes, taking the hits that rugby players do, often while running the equivalent of an olymic marathon. AFL is king of footy in this country.

AFL - not structured enough for me. Not close enough on average.

rugby union - OK but a bit too thuggish, whats doing with stomping?! Too many players on the field; too much kicking; and field and penalty goals are worth too much.

American football - I dont mind it, its just too slow and too stop start. But they arent wimps, that fibreglass padding and those helmets hurt!

Canadian - never seen it, see above.

Gaelic - bit too weird

soccer - too many draws for my liking, too much acting, too much disrespect for refs, too much violence in their supporters.

rugby league is the best in my opinion. Although the players are a bit too young on average and some arent too bright - tarnishes the image a bit. But this year's season has been so close its not funny. Take friday nite when the Tigers (11th) played awesome and were just pipped by the bulldogs (2nd). The bottom 3 teams have 16 wins between them, that's a close competition!

Looks like League is winning the popularity race. Suppose if this was a Expensive Daewoo site, the "I don't like any type of football" option would be the number 1 pick. :lol:

League all the way!!!!!!

Union isn't too bad, second to league. Soccer, can't understand the rules. AFL, aerial ping-pong as far as I'm concerned - name should be changed to GayFL!

Sharkies are my favs, but have to say go the COWBOYS at the moment. They have been on top of their game...... look out top 8, here come the North Queenslanders!

Not really my cup-o-tea. I sometimes watch a little State Of Origin League, but generally not that interested.

Thugby League?

What's "obvious" to you (and the rest of us for that matter) is not always imediately apparent to poor ol Sally. I've heard it said that "The Boy's as sharp as two pound of wet leather".
